I like it alot! one question thou. Did you take apart the trim from the car or did the owner of the car that?
I want to do the same but I'm not so sure how to do it. Some parts I know but if you maybe you have pics
it would be really great if you could show me how.

Looks like great work, anything is better than that flat wood trim+!!!

I couldn't disagree more. The flat wood trim looks so much better than the gloss. When I bought my 7 I only considered ones with the flat wood, it is so much more modern. I also know that I don't share the taste of most on the forum.

I can tell by our posts that I don't share the same taste as you.
Clean, simple and modern is my motto

I don't expect everyone to share my taste, and I know that most of this forum will never understand.

I can get into a 10 page ran't about this, but I was trained in design, made a career out of design and came from a design family. You won't find any faux columns in my house, or any textured drywall, or any archways, and you will never see the "model" of my house anywhere else and is built on a 33 foot wide lot, yet it received one of the highest AIA awards when it was built.

I don't expect the masses to understand or appreciate design, but believe me I there is a small community of well trained individuals that determine trends wither you like it or not, just like Bangle's design of the 745, a car that the masses hated when it came out. It stuck out like a sore thumb, yet just about every car manufacturer had adopted the "bangle butt" in just a few years.

You will never find me living in the suburbs, you will never catch me in a house that was a "model", and my guess is I will not find to many here that will agree with me. It's lonely at the top

I hear you brotha. I actually own 4 Faux leather ottomans (an not ashamed of it), an they hold up very well. I am just not a fan of flat wood trim its " Rather tasteless" in my oponion. . P.S My brother has the same car as me, with the same color interior an exterior as me but his wood trim is flat walnut an he loves it so I guess we all like different things.
